INTRODUCTION

The PHD 200 Dehumidifier reduces humidity in enclosed structural environments by removing water vapor from the air. With proper use, the PHD 200 can help to dry out damp structural materials, insulation, and contents, and maintain a healthy level of humidity. Using the PHD 200 may also prevent secondary damage caused by high humidity.

How the PHD 200 works

The PHD 200 refrigerant dehumidifier uses a fan to draw moist air in and condenses it into water that collects in a tray and is automatically pumped out through a drain hose.

The PHD 200 is preset to automatically maintain a 50% RH level. To change this setting, see “Humidistat Mode” below. Note: Unit automatically shuts off below 40% RH.

CONTROLS AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Set unit upright

NOTICE: Always store, transport, and use the unit in a horizontal position. If the unit is ever placed in a vertical position, return it to the horizontal position and let it stand for at least 30 minutes before turning it on.

Positioning a Dehumidifier

For best results, operate your dehumidifiers in an enclosed area. Place your dehumidifier away from obstructions, and keep it away from anything that could block airflow into and out of the unit. For more information about creating an optimum drying environment, contact Legend Brands at 800-932-3030.

TIP: Before installing in a crawlspace or other difficult to access location, plug in the unit and run it for approximately half an hour to ensure proper operation.

Set up drain hose

The PHD 200 condensate pump connects to a plastic drain hose equipped with a quick-connect fitting for quick attachment to the unit. To set up the hose, unwrap the entire hose and place the unattached end in a sink, drain, bucket or outdoors – anywhere that water can drain out safely. Connect the other end of the hose to the PHD 200. If you use a bucket or other container for water collection, check it regularly to prevent overflows.

NOTICE: Uncoil and straighten the entire drain hose. Do not leave any part of the hose coiled and do not place the end of the hose higher than 3 ft. (1 m) above the bottom of the unit. Also check for kinks or other obstructions that might restrict the flow of water. Obstructions may cause a water backup and result in overflows.

Plug in electrical cord

The PHD 200 should be plugged into a GFCI-protected 115 volt outlet rated for at least 15 amps. Always plug the cord firmly into the unit first, and then plug the other end into a suitable outlet.

Startup display and normal display modes

When unit is first plugged in to AC power, the control panel display will briefly cycle through a series of

BEFORE MOVING THE UNIT

To reduce the possibility of drips when moving the unit, follow these additional steps to ensure that all water is removed from the unit.

NOTICE: To ensure all water is removed from the dehumidifier, the unit will complete the defrost cycle even if the unit is turned off. If the unit is unplugged during the defrost cycle, excessive water may accumulate in the unit and may drip out when you move the unit.

NOTICE: To ensure the condensate tank empties completely while purging, make sure the unit is placed up-right on a horizontal surface.

1. If the unit is in a defrost cycle, wait until the unit has returned to normal operating mode before proceeding.
2. Gently rock the machine to ensure any water remaining on interior surfaces falls into the sump area.
3. Press the PURGE key. When the purge cycle is complete, turn the unit off.
4. Remove the external drain hose, drain it carefully, coil it and secure it with one of the straps provided on the side of the unit.
5. Remove the power cord, coil it neatly, and secure it with one of the straps provided.

TRANSPORTATION AND STORAGE

NOTICE: Always remove power cord before moving, transporting, or storing the unit.

NOTICE: Handle the unit carefully. Do not drop, throw, or place the unit where it could fall. Rough treatment can damage this equipment and may create a hazardous condition or void warranty.

• Do not expose the control panel to moisture, snow or rain.
• Protect from freezing.
• Store and transport securely to avoid any damaging impact to internal parts.
• Secure during transport to prevent sliding and possible injury to vehicle occupants.

MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE

WARNING! ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD. Unplug unit before cleaning or servicing.

WARNING: Risk of dust and contaminants exposure. Use of respirator mask and gloves is recommended. If unit has been exposed to potentially dangerous contaminants, clean thoroughly and sanitize before reuse.

NOTICE: The unit is fitted with sensitive electronic sensors. Protect the sensors and their lead wires from damage and do not expose them to water or cleaning solution.

The following tools and supplies are needed to complete the maintenance procedures described in this manual:

Philips screwdriver

10 mm wrench

6 mm hex bit

14 in. nut driver

Cleaning cloths

HEPA vacuum cleaner with soft brush nozzle and crevice nozzle.

Recommended

Cordless drill, small knife, small-jaw pliers, coil cleaning solution, rotomolded housing cleaning solution.

Before each use

Inspect the electrical cord for damage. Look for fraying, cuts, etc. Replace the cord if you find any damage.

Inspect filter. The PHD 200 filter should be replaced when the accumulation of dust is visible.

Monthly

Clean pump check valve and basin. In normal use, dust can accumulate and can restrict airflow, reducing performance and causing the unit to overheat. Clean when dust accumulation is visible. Remove grills and cover as shown in Fig. B. Use a vacuum cleaner with a brush tool and a soft cloth to remove any debris. Take care not to damage any interior components.

To maintain appearance, wipe interior and exterior surfaces with a damp cloth. For deep cleaning and a lasting, protective shine, use an automotive interior cleaner.

As Needed

Clean pump check valve and basin. Remove grills and cover as shown in Fig. B. Remove screws from pump base and lift out pump. Wipe out pump basin with a damp cloth. Unthread barbed fitting with check valve and rinse fitting and check valve with clean water. Reinstall barbed fitting into pump. Do not overtighten. Reinstall pump on base. Reinstall cover and grills.

Clean coils. With the cover removed, inspect both coils. If excessive dust and debris is present, vacuum thoroughly and/or clean with coil cleaner.

Fig. B: Disassembly for Cleaning

Remove the 4 screws from housing and 2 top screws each from inlet and outlet grills and lift off cover.
